The first of these was the Arnold Tavern which faced the village green. It was owned by Jacob Arnold, the one time Sheriff of Morris County. In 1777 he was a captain of the Light Horse troop cavalry. It was a three story tavern with a broad central hall that easily accommodated Washington aides and the stream of people who came to see him nonbusiness or military matters. He occupied two rooms over the bar, using the front room as an office and the adjoining room as sleeping quarters.Original file name Jacob Arnorls Tavern.jpg830 x 676Each photograph within this collection is protected by copyright and/or related rights.
